@chrismarquardt It’s what illiterate people write when they hear someone say “should’ve” in reply to chrismarquardt #
RT @BarackObama: “It should never be controversial to ask our students to stay in school. http://bit.ly/cDO8F"; – I couldn’t agree more. #
RT @leolaporte: “Interesting. Apple has eliminated the shopping cart in iTunes 9. Everything is one-click now.” – Don’t like that. :-/ #
I love that iTunes 9 FINALLY can recognize whether you’ve listened to a whole podcast or not! No more manual podcast managing for em! #
@CongJoeWilson Wow, what a class act. An apology would make a nice prelude to your resignation. Let someone with some respect take your seat #
Really glad to see Steve Jobs give a shout out for organ donation during the Apple iPod event yesterday. http://bit.ly/6HFP3 #

What happens when you hvae a president who’s from Chicago? Well, the same thing that happens to the Chicago River on Saint Patrick’s Day… the water turns green. Today, the white House dyed the fountains on the North and South Lawns of the White House green.

Yay Snow! OK, few inches + ton of ice + a delayed base opening = working from home. Though I always wind up doing more work at home anyway! #
Almost made it through January without getting the flu. Oh well, at least it’s the weekend. #

Finally following some people. Just let Twitter scan my contacts. Despite so many people on here, I don’t know many. Who should I follow? #
Recovering from a long holiday weekend of basement cleaning. My trash men are gonna hate me.#
Shh… Dont tell me about the inauguration. I TIVO’d it. I’ve been stuck in training since 8am. #
The new http://www.whitehouse.gov was online five minutes after Obama took office? Very impressive. #
Happy 25th anniversary, Macintosh! – http://tinyurl.com/2yzaml #

I wish I’d seen this before the election. Ron Howard made this this classic video featuring some classic characters!

Vote now!

You’ve heard and seen the months of annoying campaign ads. You’ve endured constant polling calls. Now it’s your turn to impact the election. Whether you’re voting for McCain or Obama, just make sure you vote!

I won’t tell you who I’m voting for in about 6 hours when the polls open, but if you look closely at this post, I think you’ll figure it out.

Candidates Gone Wild

I realize this photo is just a random frame grab and they often look funny, but I have many conversations (none of which are broadcast on national TV) and my tongue isn’t usually hanging out of my mouth at any point.

Oh well, at least it’s nice to see McCain finally getting a laugh after his running mate, Palin, has given us all so much to laugh at over the past few weeks.
